The Ultimate RegTech Guide (2025 update!)

Introduction to RegTech

What is RegTech? Struggling to understand who it’s for or what it entails?

Here’s our comprehensive overview of the RegTech landscape. We cover a variety of aspects, from basic definitions and background information to industry associations and our favourite readings.

So sit back, buckle up and enjoy your introduction to RegTech, it’s time to share our insights.

3 RegTech Causes

In the broader literature, there are two widely held perspectives on the RegTech revolution. In the first version, RegTech is exclusively the consequence of the 2008 financial crisis and the regulatory tsunami it triggered. In the second version, RegTech is only an add-on to FinTech and the related demand for the digital processing of regulations.

At Apiax, we do not believe that any one of these explanations alone can convincingly capture the phenomenon. Instead, we find that the RegTech revolution is the result of a number of broad and powerful forces.

1. The financial crisis

The most obvious cause of RegTech are the events around the 2008 financial crisis. In the wake of the crisis, financial reforms emerged to ensure risk management practices in financial institutions. These post-crisis regulatory reforms spawned an unprecedented amount of laws and regulations, leading to an explosion in the scope and complexity of the regulatory environment.

How innovation is used is determined by the incentives of the economic agents, who are in turn influenced by the regulatory framework. As financial institutions were left with an unprecedented compliance burden, their incentive to manage regulatory risks without negatively impacting growth has triggered an urgent need for efficient and effective solutions in the field of regulatory compliance.

2. Digitisation and technological advancement

Probably the most important root cause of RegTech are digitisation and technological developments. Technological advancement and new standards have brought about new ways of dealing with regulatory challenges. If we look at it from the perspective of RegTech being an enabler of advancement, it can be said that RegTech allows financial institutions and regulators alike to ease their operative activities when it comes to regulatory compliance. If we look at it from the perspective of RegTech being a response to advancement, it is obvious that new digital products and services as well as new digital habits demand compliance to be mastered digitally, too.

3. Competitive advantage

The last cause when it comes to the emergence of RegTech is its being a competitive advantage. It is only natural that companies always strive to gain some kind of head start to their competition. With the potential of RegTech being well understood and well established, financial institutions are trying to push into this area with vigour.

Therefore, more and more industry leaders are realising that superior compliance processes are a competitive differentiator. So it is no surprise that investments in regulatory technology are skyrocketing: according to industry analysts, the RegTech market is predicted to grow from a 19.8 billion USD market in 2024 into a 51.6 billion USD market in 2030.

And this comes with no surprise: with increasing cost sensitivity, RegTech helps to boost productivity and efficiency and offers improved traceability and auditability as a welcome side effect. Thereby, it enables companies to achieve growth targets that would otherwise be out of their reach. Such RegTech benefits can be seen in the incorporation of digital data protection regulations or cross-border compliance.

What is RegTech

Regulation is one of several services that have recently been given the ‘tech’ affix. While the definition of RegTech means different things to different people, regulatory technology has certainly received a lot of attention with increasing regulatory complexity and regulatory costs. Below, we present and discuss some of the most common RegTech meanings to bring some clarity to the topic. So, what is RegTech?

• Investopedia “RegTech is the management of regulatory processes within the financial industry through technology. The main functions of RegTech include regulatory monitoring, reporting, and compliance. Regtech, or RegTech, consists of a group of companies that use cloud computing technology through software-as-a-service (SaaS) to help businesses comply with regulations efficiently and less expensively. RegTech is also known as regulatory technology.”
• Financial Conduct Authority “RegTech applies to new technologies developed to help overcome regulatory challenges in financial services.”
• Wikipedia “Regulatory technology (abbreviation: RegTech) is a new technology that uses information technology to enhance regulatory processes. With its main application in the Financial sector, it is expanding into any regulated business with a particular appeal for the Consumer Goods Industry. Often regarded as a subcategory under FinTech, RegTech puts a particular emphasis on regulatory monitoring, reporting and compliance and is thus benefiting the finance industry. The objective of RegTech is to enhance transparency as well as consistency and to standardise regulatory processes, to deliver sound interpretations of ambiguous regulations and thus to provide higher levels of quality at lower cost. Oftentimes RegTech companies use the cloud through software-as-a-service.”
• CB Insights “We define RegTech broadly to include any technology and/or software created to address regulatory challenges and help companies understand regulatory requirements and stay compliant. Companies in this space help customers meet compliance standards, ensure risk management protocols are in place, and put in place controls that actively mitigate risk. This technology ranges from complementing existing compliance, audit, and risk workflows to replacing and wholly automating them through leveraging cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence, machine learning, and the blockchain.”
• AIR RegTech Manifesto “The term for the digital technology emerging in financial regulation is ‘RegTech’ or ‘RegTech’. The word is widely used with two meanings. First, it refers to ‘RegTech for regulators’, versions of which are often called supervisory tech, or ‘SupTech’. Second, it also denotes technology for use by the financial industry to comply with laws and regulatory rules. These two streams of RegTech – one for the regulator and one for the industry as they work on the same core problems – are mirror images of each other. They share the same kinds of technologies, rooted in common sources of digitised information and data flows.”

What is the difference between RegTech and Fintech?

Is it fair to say that RegTech is the new FinTech? Certainly not. Although we see both walking hand in hand, RegTech and FinTech are independent of each other and address different needs. As Andrew Yuille, Head of Risk Business Solutions at Thomson Reuters, says:

“RegTech is looking at how institutions, banks, insurance companies or even regulated entities can comply with regulation and do it in a more efficient way, FinTech is looking at innovative solutions, typically for consumers, in the little gaps left by financial services organizations, bigger banks or insurance businesses.”

The FinTech revolution has evidently created numerous innovations that have led to a robust demand for RegTech solutions. But the one cannot be mixed up with the other. FinTech innovations themselves, for example, require the integration of digital regulations into their existing solutions to make them work efficiently. EY expands:

“RegTech is often misunderstood and confused with FinTech. While FinTech refers to the use of technologies and software to provide financial services, RegTech is the use of new technologies to address the increasingly dense data landscape required to meet regulatory compliance challenges.”

We do not agree with Wikipedia’s notion of RegTech being a sub-industry of FinTech. Evident is that they bear distinct differences akin to the next comparison.

What is the difference between RegTech and SupTech?

Other than RegTech, SupTech is one of the more recent neologisms in the tech realm. SupTech specifically assists supervisory authorities like FINMA or MAS, while RegTech serves both banks and regulators.

Therefore, SupTech is seen as kind of a subcategory of RegTech:

The term for the digital technology emerging in financial regulation is ‘regtech’ or ‘RegTech’. The word is widely used with two meanings. First, it refers to ‘regtech for regulators’, versions of which are often called supervisory tech, or ‘suptech’.  Second, it also denotes technology for use by the financial industry to comply with laws and regulatory rules. These two streams of regtech – one for the regulator and one for the industry as they work on the same core problems – are mirror images of each other. They share the same kinds of technologies, rooted in common sources of digitized information and data flows.

What do compliance experts at Apiax think RegTech is?

RegTech solutions can enable compliance by design. If processes are designed in such a way that people have no other option but to follow them, the error rate goes down significantly. Equally as important is the reduction of control efforts that comes with this set-up. And not to mention the huge cost savings.

Andreas Strässle, Chief Operating Officer

RegTech is used to optimise the regulatory management processes and make compliance knowledge accessible and actionable to everyone.

Adriana Azevedo, Head of Software Engineering

Whilst RegTech automatically solves and implements routine inquiries, compliance officers are empowered to focus on their core business objectives: manage risks on a strategic level and seize opportunities.

RegTech Summary

While the definition can be found in most modern dictionaries, we find that the meaning of RegTech encompasses so much more than the cross between regulation and technology.

Its broad scope and application span across multiple industries, business functions and operational purposes. Regardless of business objectives, one thing is sure: RegTech is here to stay and brings benefits essential to competing in the digital era.
